The JVM becomes the hub for all the Java apps running on a machine or device. So the JVM largely relieves the software developer of the burden of worrying about programming security “bugs”.

The main thing that makes Ratpack interesting is the execution model, which aims to make asynchronous programming on the JVM easier.

The non-Java JVM languages tend to be more concise (less verbose) than Java. Almiray showed the common JavaBean example written in Java and said we have come to rely on IDEs because of the pain ...

James Ward is a Java Champion and Google’s Kotlin product manager. In this interview, he speaks about the state of Java, JVM languages, mutability, and functional programming.

The easiest way to optimize your Java runtime is to supply correct JVM options and parameters. In honor of the Java 21 release, we examine the 21 most important Java JVM options you can configure.

For both short- and long-term allocations, the C++ program is considerably faster than the Java program running on any JVM. Short-term allocations have been one focus area for optimization in HotSpot.

Much of its popularity is due to JVM compatibility and support for Java 6; but more importantly, it's possible to build a project with a mix of code files written in either Kotlin or Java.
